A Georgia firefighter who filmed the body of a woman who died in a wreck he was attending was suspended pending an investigation, the Spalding County Fire Department told NewsCore on Thursday.

The video was passed around to other firefighters and eventually seen by the victim’s parents, in a shocking blow for the grieving family.

The department confirmed that an unnamed firefighter made the gruesome video while attending a crash that killed Dayna Kempson-Schacht on July 17 in Spalding County, Ga.

A fire department statement said the accused firefighter was last on the scene to the crash and used a cell phone to film the 23-year-old’s body.

“The video was recorded after the initial responders had determined that Ms. Kempson-Schacht had been killed on impact and there was nothing that could be done for her. Later, that video was shared with other firefighters and ultimately with people outside of the department including Ms. Kempson-Schacht’s parents,” it said.

“It was bad enough that we lost our daughter. And now to have to deal with something like this, it’s just beyond words,” father Jeff Kempson told myFOXatlanta.com earlier this week.

“When I close my eyes, it’s not fair that that video is what I see of my daughter,” said mother Lucreta Kempson.

The fire department statement added, “Spalding County considers the taking of the video and sharing it in this circumstance to be, at minimum, a grave error in judgment.”

A report will be prepared for an Oct. 25 fire department board meeting. The firefighter involved was suspended while the investigation was carried out.
